TRU: VICTORY.
He stood with a toot on the threshold
Anda cloud on his boyish taco,
While hii city comrade urged him
To enter the gorgeous place.
"There's nothing to fear, old fellow!
It isn't a lion's den ;
Hero waits you a royal welcome
From the lips of the bravest men."
'Twos the old, old voice of the tempter
Tliat sought in the old, old way,
To lure with a lying promise
The innocent feet estray.
"You would think it was Blue Beard's
closet
To see how you stare and shrink !
I tell you there's nought to harm you—
It's only a game and a drink 1"
He heard the words with a sfrudder—
It's only a game and a drink!
And hie lips made bold to answer :
"But what would my mother think?"
The name that his heart held dearest
Had started a secret spring,
And forth from the wily tempter
He fled like a hunted thing.
Away 1 till the glare of the city
And its gilded halls of sin
re shut from his sense of vision,
The shadows of night within.
Away! till his feet have bounded
O'er fields where his childhood trod ;
Away 1 in the name of virtue,
And the strength of his mother's God 1
What though ho was branded "coward 1"
In the blazoned halls of vice,
And banned by his baffled tempter,
Who sullenly tossed the dice.
On the page where the angel keepeth
The record of deeds well done,
That night was the story written
Of a glorious battle won.
And he stood by his home in the starlight
All guiltless of sword and shield—
A braver and nobler victor
Than the hero of bloodiest field !
He drank when he was weary
His strength to prolong.
His legs grew still more shaky,
His breath grew more strong.
World-wide a curse lies on our land;
From shore to shore, from sea to sea,
No nation, country, island, free
From alcohol's destroying hand.
The next worse thing to the liquor
saloon is the fashionable liquor club.
The distilleries of the United States
used the last fiscal year 26,989,661
bushels of grstin in liquor.
The Chief of Police of lialtitnore
says he never found l.oysiu the saloons
until lager beer was introduced and
games prepared to e'utice them in.
Somebody once e.id: Our Govern-
Mment land costs one dollar in acre,and
good whiskey two dollars a bottle,
How many men die landless, who
during their lives have swallowed
whole townships --trees and all! There
is food for reflection in this statement.
The Atlantic Monthly, in an article
on the saloon in polities, admits that
although our American system of gov-
ernment and education is theoretical-
ly sound, our political sehool are sal-
oons; Haat a candidate to be successful
must make himself solid with the
saloon power.

Workmen must stand up against

A number of the fashionable mils
linera cif New York have established a
custom which has proved very profi-
table to thetu and is approved by the
wealthy customer for whom it was
instituted. It id ' a fine service of
champagne ad lib. in a private parlor
to any wealthy customer who wants
it. These hisah.priced milliners have
learned that a $20 bonnet can he

er after her nature heti been soothed
by a few glasses of the insidious juice
of the grape.
The Wine and Spirit Gazette says
that, what it calls "the unceasing agi-
tation of the cold water cranks has
succeeded in completely outlawing the
traffic. in wino, spirits and beer in
seven States of the Union; has render-
ed traffic contingent upon the popular
votes of isolated loeatities'in a major-
ity of the other Stares; has greatly
increased the license fee where that
system prevails; has placed restriction
and embarrassment upon the trade
which were not dreamed of half a
century ago; and in fine has put the
liquor 'radio everywhere on the defen-
sive, compelling it to fight for exist-
ence.
The Supreme Court of Indiana has
decided, in the suit of Mary E. Hag-
gart and Sarah C. Rothwell vs.Steok-
lin di Heidt, that the saloon is a nuis-
ance and liable to pay damages, The
effect of this judgment is to make
every saloon -keeper doing business
within one hundred feet of any church
school or residence subject to suit and
damages for maintaining a nuisance.
